What could "operational reasons" be?

[Colm Moore]

I don't know, not enough train to open Dunboyne?

I am waiting for the day half the 2600's return to Dublin from Cork Shed to cope with the lack of available rolling stock to cover the Dublin suburban services.

2x 2700 were needed for one of the Waterford-Heuston services, one of those would have been from the Limk Junc-Waterford I guess, and the other from Limerick depot....hence no train to operate the above services

As the 15:00 from Waterford arrives into Heuston at 17:30 will the 17:40 to Waterford be the same train returning as they are both done by the 2700 tomorrow??
